The Imperial Republic of Alesya is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Imperial President Julian Wambla'kda with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, enslaved workforce, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.009 billion Alessyans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ylem. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.2%.

The all-consuming Alesyan economy, worth 223 trillion Kwanzas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 111,256 Kwanzas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 318,080 per year while the poor average 30,996, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.

Heretic deviants are free to practice their deviance outside of Alesya, in musicals everybody's a little bit racist, the new cheese tax is colloquially known as "wheel welfare", and military spending is on the increase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alesya's national animal is the Black Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Ancient Paganism.
